JANENE DIRICO-CABLE

Castle Rock artist has watched local areas grow About me I am a bronze artist with a focus on equine art. I am the United States Equestrian Federation Trophy artist with the Pegasus/Humanitarian Award trophy called “Triple Threat.”

My background is in sciences (dental, psychology, archeology and anthropology sidelines) as well as art. I was born and raised in Bakersfield, California, and went to school in Florida. I worked in media marketing in Nashville for a country singer for 13 years. I am a Jack (or is that Jill?) of all trades!

Seeing change I actually lived in Colorado back before Highlands Ranch existed. Trust me, it wasn’t that long ago. I’ve seen Castle Rock grow and change every year. I am hoping the open spaces stay protected as hiking is awesome in this area. The history of Castle Rock and surrounding areas needs to be protected and nurtured.

A love for art I actually started sculpting because of a visit to the Leanin’ Tree Museum in Boulder. The owner, Ed Trumble, and Sara Sheldon, the curator of the museum, encouraged me to try my hand at bronzes after I admired one of the bronzes in the gallery. With their support, I took a class and was hooked. Loveland is home to the finest bronze foundries in the world, like Art Castings. If you get a chance to visit the Leanin’ Tree Museum before Aug. 31, do it. The gallery is free and open to the public until then. After Aug. 31, the museum will close. I feel like I am losing a friend. It’s so awesome. A must-see while you can.

My hobbies Hiking, training dogs, and I say the Castle Rock Police Department K-9 unit is my hobby. I did the bronze sculpture of Jax. He guards the police department and everyone who passes by.

My advice I have a few sayings I live by: “Take nothing personally,” “What goes around, comes around (karma),” and “Believe them when they show you who they really are.”

Get ready for a night out The public is invited to attend the Castle Rock Police Department’s fifth annual National Night Out event from 5 to 8 p.m.

Aug. 1. Held at Philip S. Miller Park, the evening will feature K-9 demonstrations, tours of police and fire vehicles, and the opportunity to learn about police divisions such as SWAT and investigations.

Residents can also enjoy free food and an outdoor screening of “Zootopia,” which will begin at dusk, or approximately 8:30 p.m. Police will provide the popcorn — moviegoers just need to bring a blank or chair.

National Night Out is a nationwide event, founded by the National Association of Town Watch in 1984, which promotes crime prevention in communities. More than 38 million people in 16,000 communities across the United States and Canada attend the event annually.

Model search comes to town The 2017 “ROCK Your Runway” Model Search will come to the Outlets at Castle Rock on July 29 where hundreds of modeling hopefuls will audition for a chance to appear in Colorado Outlets’ future advertisements and fashion shows.

Castle Rock voters to rule on how mayor is elected At-large post, reduction in districts will be on ballot ‘The people that are as petition reaches goal behind this, I don’t believe that they’ve thought this out.’

the council, elect the mayor. The committee also hopes an at-large system would hold the mayor accountable to the whole town, and not just the district in which he or she is elected by voters.

While gathering signatures, Harlos said the group battled some misconceptions about their cause, which he often saw circulated on social media.

The group is not advocating for a strong-mayor system in which the mayor has more authority than other council members, he said. They also want to maintain the council-manager form of government, which means Castle Rock employs a town manager.

Until the next election on Nov. 7, awareness is their focus, Harlos said, plus encouraging people to vote.

And while the group remains passionate for their cause, not everyone in town is convinced it’s the right move.

Cliff Orr, who was a signer of the original town charter, said he isn’t for or against the idea of an at-large mayor, but he worries it’s too soon to be asking voters to move to an atlarge system.

“The people that are behind this, I don’t believe that they’ve thought this out,” Orr said. “It’s not just about having a mayor, it’s about everything else that has to be changed to do this.”

Orr said voters have many questions to consider, such as whether an at-large mayor would have his or her own office and would need it staffed.

He personally believes an at-large mayor should not have a vote on the council, creating executive and legislative branches of government, and hopefully instilling checks and balances on the mayoral position.

But a mayor without voting power creates an issue when the petitioners included trimming the number of districts to an even number, he said, setting a council up for ties.

Ultimately, Orr asks how the mayor’s duties under the petitioners’ proposition would be different from what they are now.

“Unless you do it right, you’re going to have a mayor that might as well be a lame duck position,” he said.

out across town from King Soopers to Walmart to Home Depot. It also meant getting signatures from fellow patrons while they pumped their gas and going door-to-door in neighborhoods.

But a band of Castle Rock citizens who hope to see their mayor elected by an at-large, townwide vote of the people have moved one step closer toward that goal. The town announced July 20 that the group had collected enough signatures on its petition to ask voters this November who should elect the mayor — all the town’s voters, or the members of town council.

The committee, dubbed Castle Rock Citizens for Elected Mayor, is also calling to reduce the number of the town’s districts from seven to six.

State statute required the group to collect signatures from at least 10 percent of registered voters in Castle Rock, or 4,288 registered voters, by July 10 — and they collected signatures from April through the morning of July 10 to ensure that happened, committee chairman Wayne Harlos said.

The town clerk had until July 31 to verify those signatures. With enough secured, voters will see a question on their November ballot in a special election on the issue, a town spokeswoman said. Castle Rock residents were already due to get a November ballot for school board issues.

The town council is tasked with setting the ballot language. That will require creating an ordinance approved in two readings. The first is scheduled for Aug. 1 and the second for Aug. 15.

As for the Citizens for Elected Mayor, they will begin working to further educate voters on the issue, Harlos said.

“The majority of people that I engaged out talking didn’t even know that they were not allowed to vote for mayor, and part of that is because we have so many new residents here,” Harlos said, although he believes many longtime residents are also unaware.

The mayor has traditionally been elected by a vote of the seven-member town council. Current town code prohibits public comment during the vote as well.

The Citizens for Elected Mayor believe Castle Rock’s growth in population means it’s time the people, not

Vet who’s a veteran is seeking seat in Congress Castle Rock’s Chase Kohne campaigns to turn Fourth District blue

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Running against a two-term incumbent in a reliably red district may be a daunting prospect for any Democrat in his first campaign for Congress, but Castle Rock veterinarian Chase Kohne welcomes the challenge.

“I don’t believe Ken Buck has faced an opponent in the past who can connect with the voting population in CD4 like I can,” Kohne said.

The 4th Congressional District — which Buck, a Republican from Windsor, was first elected to represent in 2014 — encompasses Parker, Lone Tree, Castle Rock and nearby communities, Elbert County and much of the state’s eastern plains region. So far in the quest to win the November 2018 election, Buck faces challenges from Kohne and two other Democrats, Karen McCormick, of Longmont, and Larry Germanson, of Firestone.

Q&A with school board candidate Randy Mills Small business owner pursues District D post

The board has been divided in recent years.

How would you help bridge that divide?

If you’re honored to be on that board, I think moms and dads, the community, want a certain level of decorum. I think that’s expected and I think that should be the example. I’m not going to speak to what the history is there. What I would bring to it is a certain level of respect and civility.

‘I think we should always strive for excellence. That’s number one.’

BY MIKE DIFERDINANDO MDIFERDINANDO@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Randy Mills, Candidate for Douglas County

Editor’s note: This is one in an ongoing series of Q&As with each of the candidates for the Douglas County School District Board of Education.

Randy Mills describes himself as a cowboy. Complete with his signature hat, Mills says he has a fondness for the Western way of life and believes in the code of the West principle of taking pride in your work.

Mills, of Castle Rock, spent his early years outside of Munich, Germany, where his parents served as educators to the children of American service members stationed abroad. He learned to ski by riding the subway to the nearby Alps.

As a young adult, he came back to America, choosing to come to Colorado, in part, because of his love of skiing.

He is a small business owner and electrician who said he hopes to advocate for more vocational training in the school district.

Both of his daughters were educated in the Douglas County School District, where they attended both neighborhood and online schools.

School District Board of Education As part of the four-person Elevate Douglas County slate, Mills, 56, is running for the District D seat, which includes portions of Castle Rock as well as the Franktown area. The seat is currently held by Judith Reynolds, who was first elected in 2013. Reynolds has not announced if she will seek re-election.

Why did you decide to run?

We had a great experience with both of our daughters (in Douglas County schools). If we look at the benchmarks, Douglas County is doing some things well, but that’s not to say there isn’t room to grow, that there isn’t room to pursue a higher bar. Our experience was very positive. At the very least, I would want that for anyone else that’s a young family in this county. Many are attracted here by our school system, as they should be. And we need to have a vibrant educational system.

That’s reason number one. That’s why

Would you be supportive of a bond or mill levy to bring more funding to the district?

I would be deliberative with it. Perhaps that’s the case, but we should look at it thoroughly and understand all of the mechanisms that come together.

That’s not just a bond or a mill-levy override, but what other fiscal resources do we have? What other efficiencies do we have? It’s a big institution. And to the administration’s credit, they found 20-plus million (dollars) in the recent budget. That’s like 3 percent. That’s not to say we couldn’t review (if a bond or mill levy is needed), but I think we need to be thorough in our assessment and then make a judgment.

I’m in this race. I would be an ambassador. I would be a servant leader. I would want to be representative of the voices in the community.

What are the most important issues facing the school district?

I think we should always strive for excellence. That’s number one. We should keep the bar high. I understand there are certain accreditations and those kind of things, but we need to keep the bar high. We need to figure out the solutions and environments that make that happen. I understand there are other demands in the county.

There are fiscal demands. That’s in the airwaves right now. They are complicated. Not that they can’t be comprehended, but they need to be well thought through. We need to understand what dynamics are going on and what the nuances are. My pledge is that I can be deliberative in that process.

What do you want people to know about you?

I love Douglas County. I love life. I love liberty. I love the pursuit of happiness. This is the American dream, and an important component of that is a well-rounded education system.

I believe I could help contribute to that.

DOUGLAS COUNTY FAIR PREVIEW

Tradition of exhibits, fun times brings people back Get ready: Annual event returns for 99th time, with kickoff July 29

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

As opening day for the 99th Douglas County Fair and Rodeo draws near, local officials are celebrating a tradition rich in history, culture and entertainment .

“I think it’s one of the events that brings the whole county together,” Douglas County Commissioner Roger Partridge said.

Part of the beauty in the fair and rodeo, which kicks off July 29, is its widespread influence, Partridge said. Relatives visit from out-of-state to see exhibits. Parents and children work together on projects.

“Respect, the work ethic involved, the integrity, caring for something besides yourself and leadership,” Partridge said of what 4-H teaches young people in the county.

The event celebrates family, community and the area’s history, including the importance of agriculture. But most importantly, Partridge believes the fair and rodeo is about tradition.

This year’s fair and rodeo, which runs through Aug. 6 at the Douglas County Fairgrounds, 500 Fairgrounds Road in Castle Rock, includes plenty of new and exciting features.

Festivities start with a townheld cattle drive on July 28 and the Castle Rock Chamber Fair Parade the morning of July 29. The days that follow are filled with livestock shows, musical performances, rodeo events, project exhibits and a slew of entertainment options.

New this year in the livestock arena is an addition to the goat show. Fainting goats, a breed of goat that briefly faints when it is startled, have been added to the list of breeds 4-H participants may enter.

“It’s not harmful to them in any way,” fair Administrative Assistant Michelle Bartlett said of the fainting, although the spells are good for a laugh from spectators.

For the second year, the cat show will offer a way for any county resident to get involved with animal exhibits, Bartlett said. The show was added to include kids who do not have the resources, such as land, to raise larger livestock projects.

“All the animal shows that are on the first weekend are open to the public,” Bartlett said, “and we would love for people to attend those.”

A perk for members of the public attending livestock shows, or simply wandering through the barns to see the goats, swine and cattle, is to observe how close a family can be to the animals. Bartlett hopes people

DOUGLAS COUNTY FAIR PREVIEW

Poultry trending in popularity with growth in backyard birds Program a good launching pad for other livestock activities

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

When Christy Van Bibber first began working in the 4-H poultry division 10 years ago, 23 kids were showing approximately 90 chickens and other birds at the Douglas County Fair and Rodeo.

Today, that number is 72 kids with 340 entries among them. That’s up from 323 entries last year. The most entries fair officials have seen was 420 birds — two years ago.

“Over the years it’s grown up,” Van Bibber said of the program. “I think what changed more than anything else was that it changed on the local level … Everybody can have chickens now.”

More municipalities allow residents to raise chickens within city or town limits, a trend that has boosted interest and involvement in poultry showing — particularly in the county’s more urban areas.

“If they have backyard chickens,” Van Bibber said, “they can show them at the fair.”

The poultry show is one of several livestock programs at the fair, which runs from July 29 through Aug. 6.

Organizers and 4-H participants alike say being involved in poultry teaches valuable lessons in leadership and encourages participants to try bigger livestock projects as well.

Van Bibber recommends involving kids in 4-H because of what they learn in the process of raising and caring for animals. In the poultry division.

For instance, participants must keep records of their animals’ food schedule and egg production. They must understand the anatomy of their birds and know facts about the breeds they show — all on top of building a relationship with the bird, feeding and watering it.

“They work hard,” Van Bibber said, “and they see the benefit of doing the work themselves.”

Poultry shows are also judged through a process similar to one-onone interviews, so kids must learn how to confidently communicate information about their birds.

“You learn how to speak in front of people and learn how to present the best of you and the best of your animal,” Van Bibber said.

And, she said, many kids who begin by showing poultry pick up larger projects and branch into other livestock shows.

That was the case for 15-year-old

HOW TO GET INVOLVED IN 4-H To learn more about showing poultry, introductory classes are offered in the spring to learn showmanship skills and how to keep coops clean. Demonstrations also are conducted so kids can see how showing is done.

More information about 4-H, livestock showing and workshops for all programs is available at the Douglas County Extension office website, douglas.colostate.edu.

Alex Cerullo of Sedalia.

Cerullo has shown poultry for all her seven years in 4-H and plans to keep with it for the remaining four she has left before aging out of the program.

“The first year I felt like I didn’t really know that much,” she said.

Luckily, Cerullo was guided by a mentor in her 4-H club who showed her how to handle her birds, how to care for them “and really get good at it.” She also has learned leadership skills demonstrated by her mentor, Cerullo said.

These days, she’s passing on the favor of mentorship.

“I’ve been able to work with some of the new kids learning to work with their chickens,” she said.

Cerullo will head to the Douglas County Fair and Rodeo this year with nine birds. She’ll go as a more confident showman than when she first entered the poultry division, a better speaker, and as Van Bibber predicted, she’ll also be taking other livestock projects to the fair, including goats and dogs.

“The whole thing about 4-H,” Van Bibber said, “is that we’re growing and educating the kids.”

Young fencers get parried away Douglas County kids’ swordplay takes them to national tournament

BY TOM SKELLEY TSKELLEY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A

group of youths recently went to the largest fencing tournament in the history of the sport, but it was more important to their coach that they come home with happy memories than medals.

“The most rewarding part is just seeing their growth,” said Elliott Clinton, head coach at the Fencing Academy of Parker. “It’s not only about seeing them grow as fencers.

It’s about seeing them grow as people. I try to teach them more than fencing. I try to be a role model.”

Speaking in short, brief sentences that mimic the thrusts and parries employed as fencers practice behind him, Clinton explained that the eight fencers from the academy may not have won any hardware, but they came home with something more important.

“These kids put their heart and soul into this,” Clinton said. “There’s no better feeling in this world than bringing a child to a tournament and to see all you’ve worked for with them over hours and hours and see it click.”

Rachel Buhay, a 12-year-old fencer from Castle Rock, said the thrill of the experience was worth the training.

For her, going to the tournament was an extension of the

A major in the United States Army Reserve commanding a company in the Civil Affairs division, Kohne recently returned from 10 months in Afghanistan, working with civilians to create local government infrastructure and resist the Taliban. Kohne’s wife, Amberlie, is a captain in the Army and is on a one-year deployment in Germany.

Kohne recently sat down with Colorado Community Media to explain his campaign platform. As he has been doing since he began meeting citizens around the district, he began the conversation by discussing health care.

What do you see as the problem with Congress’ efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act for the people of CD4?

“If Medicaid is reduced or removed, things like that are going to disproportionately hurt rural hospitals. Having to drive for two hours to get your appendix taken out in an emergency because there’s no hospital open anywhere near you, these are the issues that I believe matter to the voters in CD4.

“I am for universal health care system for everyone, but one that includes insurance markets. The problem we have now with the ACA is that not enough healthy people are buying insurance. If you use car insurance as an example ... it’s competitive because everybody buys it, everyone has to buy it to drive on the road, then you spread out that inherent risk.”

If we were to move toward the renewable energy of wind and solar, we have complete 100 percent control over the supply, demand, input, flow-through, all of that ... I’m not saying we shift away from oil and gas completely ...

But I really think that Colorado should aim for 50 percent renewable by 2025 ... Colorado can become a leader in the production of the equipment for these technologies.”

What should the goal of the U.S. military be in the world?

“We need to have the capability to respond to a peer-on-peer engagement.

That would mean Russia, that would mean China... but at the same time we can’t just be building up to that... As far as our more low-density conflicts, those are the challenges. I believe our goal in Afghanistan should be building up the country and the army to where they can essentially hold the country... I think they’re there at this point... There’s been complete bases turned over to the Afghan army, and the Taliban tried to overrun them, and they’ve been able to effectively repel those attacks.”

“I grew up in a very small town.

These towns on the eastern plains are a lot like the town I grew up in. I understand the lifestyle, and I work every day with large animals, with cows, with horses. These are the type of people who live in CD4. Even in the larger population centers like Parker, Castle Rock and Greeley, they’re bigger towns but they have a rural feel ... So I believe I can make a strong connection with these voters — better than a lawyer who went to Princeton.”

Castle Rock ultra marathoner runs for a cause Son with cerebral palsy found new opportunities through National Sports Center for the Disabled

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

David Coles joined the world of ultramarathon running in part because he was on a quest to improve his health — and he liked the challenge.

Throughout the process, Coles, 36, lost 60 pounds and focused on getting back in running shape — a hobby he’d let go of since his high school and college days. Beginning in January, there were sessions with a running coach, strength training and eventually 20- to 25-mile runs.

But the Castle Rock father of four mostly runs for a cause greater than himself, and he says that’s what makes completing ultra marathons meaningful: Coles runs long-distance races as David Coles of Castle Rock began training and running ultra marathons to raise money a fundraiser for the National Sports for the National Sports Center for the Disabled in January.

trying to help people do physical activities that they wouldn’t be able to do otherwise,” he said.

The National Sports Center for the Disabled operated from the Winter Park Resort and throughout the Denver metro, marketing director Diane Eustace said, to provide people with disabilities with recreational opportunities.

Most importantly, Eustace said the center focuses on helping people learn to do activities as a family.

“It changes their lives, for sure,” she said of the center’s clients.

The National Center for the Disabled made a drastic impact for the Coles family by teaching them how to ski with Ezekiel, Coles said, recalling what the family’s journey had been like before they discovered the center.

“It was really scary at first because there were so many developmental questions that we just didn’t know,” Coles said of Ezekiel’s diagnosis. “We didn’t know what his physical limitations would be. We didn’t know if he would be able to read or talk. We didn’t have any idea.”

He and his wife, Jessica, were

suddenly faced with learning about a condition they knew little of and with changing their family lifestyle.

Planning vacations or other activities revolved around how Ezekiel could be included. That was a bigger undertaking than they expected, Coles said.

“It’s been a journey of taking it as it comes,” he said.

Thanks to the National Sports Center for the Disabled, planning family activities has become easier, he said.

“We were able to ski as a family and it’s just not something that I thought we would be able to do together,” Coles said. “There was definitely a period of time where it felt like a lot of those family opportunities were kind of lost.”

Eustace said the money Coles raises will go to the center’s general operating budget to assist all programs, but $3,000 could pay for equipment such as a seated ski chair or one of the center’s summer camps.

Ultimately, Eustace was impressed that while Coles runs marathons to support his son he also found a way to help the greater community. And, she said, the center is grateful for more than just the money.

“What I see as more impactful, although I appreciate the money,” Eustace said, “is that passion and that support.”

Amick was seen floating without his tube into a brush area near the riverbank, according to a news release from the Jefferson County Sheriff ’s Office, but emerged from the area facedown. Bystanders pulled him from the river and began CPR before he was airlifted to St. Anthony Hospital in Lakewood and pronounced dead.

NATIONAL SPORTS CENTER FOR THE DISABLED

The National Sports Center for the Disabled is based at the Winter Park Resort and works mostly there or in the Denver metro area. It began in 1970 helping amputee patients from Children’s Hospital of Denver participate in recreational activities, such as skiing.

As soldiers began to return from the Vietnam War, marketing director Diane Eustace said, the agency expanded its programs to serve veterans as well.

Today, the National Sports Center for the Disabled works with families and veterans from throughout Colorado and abroad, including training Paralympic athletes from several countries.

The network of 50 staff members and more than 800 volunteers assist people of all ages and with a variety of mental,

physical or cognitive disabilities, helping them learn to ski, rock climb, go horseback riding and do numerous other year-round activities.

Eustace described the wide range of programs as special opportunities for people with disabilities. Archery classes provide a mental and physical challenge for many clients, who find the combination therapeutic, she said. Learning to cross-country ski is a peaceful and uniquely rhythmic activity for others with conditions such as autism.

“A lot of kids at that age, it gives them something to go back to school and say, `I went skiing this weekend — I did what you did,’ ” she said. “For a lot of them, it’s freedom. If they’re in a wheelchair, they get out of the wheelchair.”

The sound of disapproval leads to personal removal

o boo is not taboo. To boo is human.

But what’s the point? The point is to express disapproval when there are no other options.

You are at a Rockies game, and the opposing pitcher throws to first, to hold the runner.

You boo. Why? An opposing coach or the manager walks to the mound to talk with the pitcher.

You boo. Why? “It’s tradition.”

Or maybe it’s because the guy next to you is booing, and the guy next to him is booing, and the guy next to him is booing. There is something about a collective that validates individual behavior.

Do you laugh in a comedy club because some-

thing is genuinely amusing, or do you laugh because others are laughing?

“Others are laughing” is the theory behind one of the most despicable, condescending, demeaning artifices of television.

The laugh track. If it has one, I don’t watch it.

Booing, audibly expressing a thumb’s down, has been around for a long time.

If the court jester came out and said, “Take my wife, please,” he could have and should have been yanked from stage right by a long-handled hook, amid elderly tomatoes in the air at his head. Along with boos.

In the coliseum, a thumb’s down may have meant that you were to become a lion’s kabob, Bob. The etymology of “boo” dates from 1738

Scotland, when a writer named Jacob Curate used it as a word to scare children. Thereafter, ghosts picked up on it, and so did the children in Arthur Radley’s neighborhood.

When baseball came along, booing took on a new connotation. You’re not really trying to scare the Cubs or the Tigers, are you?

I have yet to boo. I am waiting for the perfect moment. Actually there have been plenty of perfect moments already, if I believed in booing. But I don’t. As you know by now, I disapprove of many things. Booing seems senseless.

I have this forum, however, and that enables me to boo, as it were, without booing.

The CFPB is a federal agency with the sole purpose of protecting the average consumer from being taken advantage of by big banks and financial companies.

Colorado residents. A large majority of my family has served in various branches and I will fight for the agency that protects them from being taken advantage of by large financial companies.

Unfortunately, the House recently passed a bill called the Financial CHOICE Act that would severely weaken this agency and its ability to protect citizens with laws that were created in response to the 2008 housing crisis. I urge our senators to stand up for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and vote against legislation that would weaken the CFPB’s ability to protect those that have served to protect us.

s a lifelong fan of music, I have developed an appreciation for music that spans almost every genre. Everything from country to clasWINNING sical, classic rock to Southern rock, WORDS reggae to blues, and jazz to hymns. And as I was listening to an old favorite Lynyrd Skynyrd tune, “Gimme Three Steps,” it made me think of something just a little different.

Part of the lyrics Michael Norton go like this: “Oh won’t you gimme three steps, gimme three steps mister, gimme three steps toward the door? Gimme three steps, gimme three steps mister and you’ll never see me no more.”

For some reason I thought about the “three steps” request in the song and related it to something I have been thinking about for a long time. I often think that we overlook the simplest things that we can be doing in our lives or saying to others in our lives that would have a positive impact and could easily be done in three steps, and more importantly three seconds or less. And yet we lose sight of that as we try and keep up with the rush and crush of life.

The spoken word is wonderful, especially when coupled with the right tonality. I mean we can all tell if someone is sincere, hurt, kind, angry, or inspired just by the way they speak.

Yet we can also tell if they are bored or have become complacent. Think about the last time someone told you “I love you,” and you replied in return, “I love you too.” Did you receive the message of love as passionate and connected to a true feeling, whether it was romance, friendship or a family bond? And did your reply come off as sincere, caring and loving or did it sound flat, mundane, compliant? Huge difference right?

In the lyrics to the song above, pay attention to the last part of the lyrics, “Gimme three steps, gimme three steps mister and you’ll never see me no more.” Well if we don’t give those closest to us and most important to us, at the very least three seconds of our heart, we may never see them no more as well. Words can build us up or tear us down or apart, and it only takes three seconds or less to accomplish either.

You may want to remember this list, take a picture of it, or just cut it out from the paper so you have it. Maybe just write down a few of your favorites so you can be reminded to put them into use, and definitely create your

Fire station serves up chow, summer safety tips for residents Four Castle Rock departments share how to stay safe

BY JESSICA GIBBS JGIBBS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

The theme was summer safety as Castle Rock Fire and Rescue opened the doors to Fire Station No. 155 on July 20, inviting the community to enjoy an open house of the facility while learning tips about staying safe during common seasonal activities.

Fire trucks were on display and firefighters worked as “grill masters,” serving up hot food while residents spoke with

representatives from four town departments — fire, parks and recreation, police and water — to discuss safety tips for each field.

Fire Chief Art Morales said the department was excited at the good turnout and being able to connect with residents. He also hoped residents could get a good look at the fire station, which was built in 2003.

“This is their investment,” Morales said.

For those who missed the open house, here are some safety tips shared throughout the evening.

Through an in-home simulation exercise designed by Morales, firefighters showed children how to roll out of bed, feel their bedroom door and evacuate through a window if the door is warm.

For emergency preparedness, Fire and Life Safety Educator Jamie Duncan was ready with information about how to prepare a 72-hour kit for residents and their pets in the event of an evacuation. Wildfires, hazardous chemical spills and other disasters can lead to days-long evacuations of neighborhoods, she said. Residents should have kits ready with supplies such as cash, food, clothing, batteries and sleeping bags.

Parents Selected to Lead Developmental Pathways Board of Directors Last month, the Board of Directors for Developmental Pathways elected 4 new officers, 3 of whom are parents of people supported by Developmental Pathways. Not only do these officers hold a deep understanding of the nonprofit organization, but they also share the experience of caring for a loved one with a developmental disability/delay, making them especially qualified to guide the organization that supports more than 7,000 individuals with developmental disabilities/delays annually.

Developmental Pathways would also like to honor their outgoing officers. These leaders guided the organization through a period of tremendous change and growth. Former President of the Board, Tim Moore, oversaw the largest growth in staff and people served in the history of Developmental Pathways and helped in a transition to new executive leadership. Outgoing Vice President JoAnne Zboyan and Secretary Lynn Myers, likewise, provided crucial leadership and advanced the mission of Developmental Pathways throughout the community. Tim, JoAnne, and Lynn helped shift perspective to the future towards becoming thought leaders in a changing landscape for the people they serve. All 3 former officers will remain on the Board.

Newly elected Board Officers include Tim Batz, Kristin Hoover, Mayre Lynn Schmit, and Beth Klein.

Assuming the role of President is Tim Batz, a Risk Control Adviser at IMA, Inc. and dad to a celebrated athlete supported by Pathways. Vice President is Lieutenant Colonel (R) Kristin Hoover, senior consultant for Allardice Enterprises, Inc. and mom to two sons, one of whom is supported by Developmental Pathways.

Mayre Lynn Schmit assumes the role of Board Secretary. Schmit is a registered dental hygienist practicing in the Denver metro area for the past 3 decades and also has a son in Pathways’ care. Beth Klein is the only continuing officer and is aptly commissioned as Treasurer, considering her role as a Senior Vice President at FirstBank. Pathways is truly grateful for her continued dedication to the Board.

Developmental Pathways is honored to have a group of leaders whose unique vantage points help strengthen their organization.

The department also recommends keeping important documents in one place so they are easy to grab.

“If somebody were to say ‘You have 10 minutes to get out of your house,’ you would grab your kit and grab your documents,” Duncan said.

Parks and Recreation Natural Resource Specialist Barbara Spagnuolo with the Castle Rock Parks and Recreation Department offered residents advice on exploring the area’s outdoor amenities, where residents may often encounter wildlife.

“We have a lot of trails, open space and parks that make Castle Rock a wonderful place to live,” Spagnuolo said. “We want people to be safe when they’re enjoying the trails and open space.”

Wildlife in the area is an important part of the ecosystem, Spagnuolo

said, including the coyotes, bears or rattlesnakes that people may encounter. The town hopes residents know how to respond when interacting with animals. For example, if trail users cross paths with a coyote, it’s important to let the animal know they are not prey.

“Never run. You should shout at the animal. You make yourself big. You stomp the ground,” Spagnuolo said.

When it comes to other wildlife, the best advice she has is for outdoor adventurers to be aware of their surroundings. Don’t wear headphones or talk on the phone when on the trail.

Although someone may simply miss noticing a hummingbird flying by, he or she could also miss a bear growling nearby or the sounds of a rattlesnake.

strapped on properly.

That means a helmet should not be too big or too small for the bicyclist.

“Your helmet is not going to do you any good if it falls off and you crash,” Coyle said.

Officers also told residents if they choose to travel by bike, they need to know Colorado road laws. While adults may need a reminder of this, children will need to be taught for the first time.

“Bicycles are considered a vehicle in the State of Colorado,” Coyle said, explaining cyclists need to stop at stop signs and use hand signals. They should also stay alert of the road around them.

“People aren’t always looking for bicycles on the road,” Coyle said.

At CRconserve.com, residents can find three main tools, Aguilar said.

First is a plant finder — an index of plants that are well adapted for the Castle Rock area but also require little water. Second is a calculator that tells how long certain plants should be watered based on the type of irrigation system. The three-step process allows residents to select a plant, select their irrigation system and then see the recommended watering schedule for that plant variety.

“Water is wasted with inefficient watering,” Aguilar said.

Third, residents can see weather information from four weather stations in town. Data such as precipitation, humidity, wind and temperature levels for the four microclimates throughout town can also assist residents monitor their water use.

“Every little bit of conservation helps,” Aguilar said.

From Broomfield to Golden to Castle Rock, bands endure struggles for love of music

T

he struggles can be many for teen bands: They can’t book gigs in traditional bar venues because they’re too young. They have to juggle their music with school, athletics, family and jobs.

They can’t guarantee they’ll stick together after graduation.

But their passion — and perserverance — quickly makes the challenges fade away.

“All these kids have dreams of becoming a musician, so it’s important for

people to support them,” said Cadence Fisher, 15, a bassist with Skeleton Dolls, a Golden-based alternative rock band that consists of herself and her two sisters.

“Just because we’re young, it doesn’t mean we’re going to be terrible.”

Skeleton Dolls, which recently performed at the Buffalo Rose, is one of many teen bands livening up the music scene across the metro-Denver area: On the north end of town you can find bands such as Broomfieldbased Oblivate, and south in Castle Rock the band Over the Castle holds court.

“Starting early gives aspiring musicians the experience to become more motivated and driven to continue with music,” said Abby Cracraft, 16, a bassist with Obliviate. “We will be contributing to the music scene for years to come.”

Obliviate’s five members range in age from 15 to 17.

Besides Cracraft, there’s Abby Reynolds, lead vocals;

to each other in a group message.

Performances are planned out well in advance, Cracraft said, and because Globalsound Studio — the band’s manager and producer — takes care of all the booking, “all we have to focus on is the music.”

Being in a band creates a special kind of unity, said Aria Fisher, 12, who drums with Skeleton Dolls along with sisters Cadence and Harmony, who plays the guitar. All three sing vocals.

“It’s fun to play with people and connect in that way,” Aria said. “Music is something that brings everyone together.”

But there’s no guarantee successful bands will stay together after high school.

Harmony Fisher, for example, plans on attending college out-of-state to pursue biomedical engineering once she graduates.

“We would definitely love to make something of this band in the music scene,” Harmony said. “But one of the things about being a teen band is that you have to be prepared for the possibility of it falling apart because of future plans.”

Another challenge is booking shows, said Jason Kaplan, 16, drummer for Over the Castle.

“Anything we can get our hands on, we’ll take,” he said. The band usually performs in public, family-friendly

meeting and breastfeeding her son for the first time, she suffered a seizure in her hospital room and soon learned she had a golf-ball sized tumor in the frontal lobe of her brain that would need to be removed as quickly as possible.

But despite the circumstances and the need for immediate surgery, Danker was committed to breastfeeding and providing her son with human milk throughout the process.

The new mom put off surgery for three weeks in order to breastfeed her son and pump in anticipation of her upcoming surgery.

“They told me that the surgery and trauma from that would affect my supply,” Danker said. “But I was determined to keep it up.”

As a first-time mom, Danker said it was important to her to breastfeed her baby not only for the nutritional benefits, but also for the bonding.

“It’s a special bond between mom and baby,” Danker said. “It helps with postpartum depression, which I still had that because of everything else, but I felt really close to my baby.”

Nutritionally, mothers milk can coat the gut in a way that formula can’t, especially in the first few weeks of life, said Abby Malman Case, international board certified lactation consultant.

“There are live properties in breast milk that aren’t in formula,” Malman Case said, adding that certain vitamins and hormones that are beneficial to the baby can’t be replicated in formula.

“Because the mom is responding to the environment, she is able to create the antibodies that are specific to her babies,” Malman Case said. “Formula can’t do that.”

Babies who are breastfed are reported to have a lower risk of asthma and allergies later in life. In addition, babies who receive breast milk exclusively for the first six months have fewer ear and respiratory infections, Malman Case said.

These are the the things Danker, who works as a bartender at the Arvada Tavern in Olde Town Arvada wanted for her son.

But the medications involved and the recovery time need after brain surgery would cause Danker not to be able to breast feed. The doctors were also concerned that the new mom may lose her milk supply once she was out of surgery.

“If the milk isn’t being removed, then the body gets the message that it doesn’t need to make as much,” Malman Case said.

To prevent this, Danker’s mom and step-mom helped her pump every three hours following the surgery.

“By pumping, she was keeping up supply for after recovery,” Malman Case said.

But what helped supplement Danker’s own milk supply in the thee days following surgery when her milk was not safe for the baby and the three weeks of recovery when she wasn’t producing enough milk, was a donation of human milk

Arvada resident Kelsey Danker hugs her 1-year-old son, Bodhi. Shortly after giving birth to Bodhi, Danker found out she needed brain surgery.

SHANNA FORTIER from Mothers Milk Bank in Arvada.

Mothers Milk Bank — a program of Rocky Mountain Children’s Health Foundation — is one of 30 nonprofit donor human milk banks in North America. The nonprofit screens, collects, processes, tests and provides donor human milk to babies across the country. Based in Arvada, the milk bank is the largest in North America distributing 740,000 ounces of milk in 2016. It is the only milk bank in Colorado and distributes breast milk to 140 hospitals around the country.

When Danker’s request for milk came, Laraine Lockhart Borman, director of outreach for Mother’s Milk Bank, delivered the donation herself to Presbyterian/St. Lukes Medical Center — where mom and baby were.

The milk bank provides milk to babies whose mothers cannot, but what made Danker’s situation different, Lockhard Borman said, was the seriousness and timing of her health condition.

“I talked to Kelsey briefly on the phone and there was something about her — we had this personal thing going on,” Lockhard Borman said. “She was so kind and it was real mom-to-mom talk. I knew that the milk bank needed to help her in any way we could.”

Danker said the donation was a “blessing.” Between the donation and the milk she produced herself, she as able to feed her son breast milk exclusively.

“It was my dream to breastfeed as long as I could exclusively,” she said. “So when I found out I wasn’t able to do that, it was heartbreaking. I can’t even put into words how grateful I was at the time and still am that Mothers Milk Bank donated to me and Bodhi.”

Now, one year after brain surgery, Danker is still breastfeeding.

Danker said she hopes her story will encourage moms to donate their excess milk.

“I feel like it’s really important for mothers to donate if they can,” Danker said. “I know a lot of moms who have extra milk who could easily donate if they knew they were able to.”

Mother’s Milk Bank opened in 1984 and has been using donated milk to help children throughout the country for the past 33 years.

“Any mother who may have extra milk, they can impact the life of a child by their personal donation,” Lockhard Borman said. “They can really make a big difference and save a baby’s life.”

From the old red brick depot at Seventh and Hazel in Leadville (at 10,200 feet above sea level), one can enjoy a scenic train ride on the High Line of the Leadville, Colorado and Southern Railroad into the Mosquito Range.

Makes a great day trip for families.

It climbs up into the mountains, with a sweeping view of Mount Elbert, Mount Massive, Galena Mountain and Homestake Peak (the latter two are on the Continental Divide).

The peaks rise above the green valley of the East Fork of the Arkansas River headwaters, marked by mining dumps, weathered buildings and historic stories galore. Leadville was

Rocks along the tracks hold large patches of brilliant yellow and orange lichen, and glacial debris is evident in some cuts. The literature about the train trip speaks of sightings of assorted animals along the way, but our articulate young conductor/tour guide speculated that since the train is so noisy, he imagines they all watch from afar!

The Leadville train departs daily at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. in the summer and at 1 p.m. weekdays from Aug. 18 to Oct. 8 — two trips on weekend days. The round trip takes two and a half hours.

July 27, 2017J Colorado Rapid Avalanche Deployment (C-RAD) avalanche dogs pose on a snowmobile in the high country of the Rocky Mountains.

Through July, Chuck and Don’s pet store, which has locations across the Denver metro area, is asking customers to round up their total or make a donation for C-RAD.

Connor Kuybus lost his dad to an avalanche three years ago. Still, the 16-year-old has a positive outlook on life. An avid skier and outdoorsman, Kuybus enjoys learning new activities and keeping busy at work. And when his employer announced its annual fundraising campaign, he said he couldn’t have been happier.

“I really enjoy being able to raise money for something that is so close to me,” said Kuybus, who works at Chuck and Don’s Pet Food and Supplies, 4008 Red Cedar Drive, in Highlands Ranch.

For the month of July, all nine metro area Chuck and Don’s locations are taking donations for Colorado Rapid Avalanche Deployment (C-RAD), a nonprofit organization started in 2016

by Flight for Life Colorado to train avalanche deployment teams, which consist of a snow technician or patrol, a dog handler and an avalanche rescue dog. To date, Chuck and Don’s Colorado stores have raised about $25,000.

The pet store picked the organization for its Raising Awareness campaign, an annual effort to give back to the community. Since its inception in 2013, the campaign has raised nearly $540,000 for organizations in Minnesota and Colorado, where stores are located, according to a Chuck and Don’s representative.

At a company meeting prior to the start of this year’s campaign, Cecilia Auch, store manager of Chuck and Don’s Highlands Ranch, came face-toface with one of C-RAD’s avalanche dogs. She described the cattle dog with its long tail and pointed snout as sweet and smart.

“What was so amazing is that in her 10 years she has rescued 60 people,” said Auch. “How often do you hear of a situation like that?”

Often at C-RAD, where dogs are essentially four-legged ski patrollers, its webpage says. They learn how to follow

DENVER METRO AREA CHUCK AND DON’S LOCATIONS • Aurora: 6380 S. Parker Road, Suite 107 • Castle Rock: 4765 Front Street • Centennial: 2253 E. Briarwood Ave., Suite 503 • Denver: 201 University Ave., Unit 113 • Highlands Ranch, 4008 Red Cedar Drive • Lakewood: 1535 S. Kipling Parkway, Suites I & J • Littleton: 9868 W.

They are trained in riding chairlifts, snowmobiles and snowcats.

An avalanche dog is a vital part of the three-piece deployment team — it can search several acres in about 30 minutes, whereas it would take about 20 humans using avalanche probes four hours to cover a similar area, according to C-RAD. C-RAD’s members include ski patrollers and rescue team personnel of Summit County and surrounding mountain towns. The organization works with several counties to deliver help at a moment’s notice: at 15 minutes, about nine in 10 people buried in an avalanche can survive, according to Colorado Avalanche Information Center. By 30 minutes, only 50 percent survive.

Funds raised by Chuck and Don’s, which can be made at any location until July 31, will provide scholarship opportunities for C-RAD members to attend training programs across the U.S. and go towards upcoming courses held in Summit County.

Training opportunities strengthen C-RAD’s deployment teams, said Doug Lesch, outreach coordinator of C-RAD. “We all dove into this world because of the passion to work alongside other professionals and amazing dogs in finding people in the snow,” Lesch said. “It is because of the support of organizations like Chuck and Don’s, as well as communities all over the state, that we have been able to provide outstanding training opportunities and courses designed to bring our deployment teams to the next level.”

THIS SUMMER WATCH A

Key players of Sterling Ranch, including developers, architects, business leaders and Douglas County commissioners, shovel the first round of dirt at the site of a future civic center. The July 21 groundbreaking ceremony celebrated the development’s first commercial building, slated for completion in spring 2018.

Sterling Ranch Civic Center construction begins Business leaders, officials celebrate first commercial building of development

BY ALEX DEWIND ADEWIND@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Dressed in suits and sundresses, business leaders and government officials of Douglas County assembled on a dirt field in what is quickly becoming the first village of Sterling Ranch.

Surrounded by paved roads weaving through finished and unfinished homes and the bustle of construction equipment, the group celebrated the future of the ground beneath them — where a 30,000-square-foot civic center, coated in “sterling” stainless steel and equipped with health and wellness features, will be built.

“We are very excited about the alternatives, the new solutions,” Harold Smethills — who, with his wife, Diane, founded the master-planned community — said at a July 21 groundbreaking ceremony. “What is most exciting for us is the new way of living.”

The civic center marks the first commercial building of Sterling Ranch, a $4.4 billion development spanning 3,400 acres west of Santa Fe Drive and south of Chatfield Reservoir. After a 20-year buildout, Sterling Ranch is expected to have 12,000 homes with 33,000 people, along with schools, churches, shopping, recreation and forward-thinking technology.

Community leaders at the groundbreaking ceremony highlighted Sterling Ranch’s impact on the prosperity of Douglas County.

The development will create 9,000 jobs of all varieties, including commercial, construction, retail and primary employers, according to Northwest Douglas County Economic Development Corp., a nonprofit organization that works to attract and retain area businesses. Building of the development itself is projected tol generate several thousand construction-related jobs per year.

“More residents,” Douglas County Commissioner Lora Thomas said to the intimate crowd, “means more economic development.”

Moving away from tradition, Sterling Ranch encourages new solutions to old problems, Smethill said.

One being water supply: About 40 percent of irrigation will come from rainwater collected from commercial buildings and street gutters by a storm management system. Another is technology: An underground fiberoptic network will deliver fiber, or bandwidth, to every home, allowing access to some of the fastest internet speeds. Homes and businesses will be interconnected through a virtual touch-screen that controls devices and energy usage.

Construction of model homes of one of eight villages in Sterling Ranch broke ground nearly a year ago, following 12 years of collaboration and some controversy. The development drew opposition from a neighboring community association over adequate water supply and impact on quality of life.

Today, those model homes sit among dozens of completed homes and lots — of which 40 to 50 have sold — in the first village, called Providence. At its completion, Providence will have 800 single-family homes, 85 acres of open space, one school, a church, a recreation center and a civic center, which is now under construction south of Titan Road.

“Residents are going to embrace this as a building that fits into their neighborhood,” said Greg Uhen, CEO of Eppstein Uhen Architects, the firm behind the building, “That they can use and enjoy and that adds to their daily life.”

Slated for a spring 2018 completion, the multi-use building will be used for enjoyment and education — one side will have outdoor gardens, floor-toceiling windows, an exhibit space, coffee shop and wine bar — and health and wellness. UCHealth recently announced that it will occupy 8,000 square feet of the center and provide primary care, which is currently nonexistent in the Chatfield Valley.

The building will evolve and change as Sterling Ranch grows, Uhen said.

But its shiny stainless steel exterior will always serve the same purpose.

“It will become iconic,” Uhen said, “something people will realize and recognize as they come in.”

Denver-based DispatchHealth bring high-quality acute medical care to homes all over the metro area.

CARL BOWER

DispatchHealth is rolling ER that visits patients’ homes Denver-based company aims to increase connectedness, save money

BY CLARKE READER CREADER@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

An acute case of bronchitis is no fun for anyone, but when Grace Lamb, a 91-year-old resident at Lakewood’s Eaton Senior Communities, came down with a case of it, it was debilitating.

“I was too sick to even go to the doctor,” Lamb remembered. “I just had to stay in bed.”

For a long time, the only option in situations like this would be to call an ambulance and go to the emergency room, both of which are among the highest healthcare costs a person can incur, often costing thousands of dollars.

But DispatchHealth, a Denver-based company, is changing that by bringing the ER to patients’ homes.

“So many people didn’t have any options when an emergency happened, and so they would go to the ER, which can be very expensive,” said Kevin Riddleberger, co-founder and chief strategy officer with DispatchHealth.

“What we do is not your typical house call. Seventy percent of what they have in the ER, we bring with us when we’re called.”

Operating from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. year-round, DispatchHealth has six fully stocked cars that can be booked by phone, online or by the company’s app, to come to a person’s home or workplace when acute medical care is needed, instead of going to an ER or hospital.

There is a nurse practitioner or physician assistant and emergency medical technician in the car, as well as an emergency department physician on call in case support is needed. Employees can provide IV fluids and medications, blood tests and rapid infectious disease tests.

It usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour for a car to arrive once it is called.

FOR MORE INFO: Getting access to DispatchHealth Call 303-500-1518 Download the app at the App Store Visit Dispatchhealth.com “When we started, we asked how we could take an ER from a hospital to a person’s home,” said Caren Misky, a nurse practitioner and DispatchHealth’s national director of advanced practice providers. “We provide the same kind of medical care in a different way. When you’re in a person’s home, it’s much more personal and you get a glimpse at their lifestyle, which might change what treatments you provide.”

Once a patient receives treatment, DispatchHealth follows up with primary care physicians and can recommend one to people who don’t have one.

According to Riddleberger, the most common conditions treated since the company started in August 2015 are urinary tract infections, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, falls with extremity pain and upper respiratory infections.

Since its inception, DispatchHealth has dealt with 6,469 cases.

“DispatchHealth is the next iteration of emergency care,” wrote Dr. Phil Mitchell, the company’s vice president of medical affairs, in an email interview. “We are very data driven. We track as much as we can in regards to patient care, escalation of care to a higher level, and documentation transfer to the patients’ care team.”

DispatchHealth takes all major insurances in Colorado, as well as Medicaid, Medicare and TRICARE, and for those without insurance, the average rate is around $200 for a visit, which is analogous to a visit to urgent care. The actual cost will vary based on a person’s insurance and coverage plan, Mitchell added, but it will almost always be cheaper than an ER visit.

The company estimates it saved $8.5 SEE DISPATCH, P26

million in 911 and ER diverts, as well as other services, since it was created.

Both hospitals and other businesses are taking note of DispatchHealth, and taking use of its services. St. Anthony Hospital and Centura Health recently partnered with the company for their patients.

“DispatchHealth isn’t meant to replace primary care but, rather, serve as an expansion to coordinated care,” wrote Wendy Forbes, St. Anthony’s director of communications, in an email interview. “We viewed this partnership as a way to create easier access and convenience to people in our service

community in an innovative way. It furthers our ‘care everywhere’ strategy where we want to be a partner for life with our patients.”

The City of Lakewood included DispatchHealth visits in its coverage about nine months ago, said Nancy Rhode, the city’s benefits and compensation manager, and has saved about $15,000 in claims in the first quarter of 2017.

“It’s a no-brainer for us because it really doesn’t cost us any more and comes right to people’s homes,” Rhode added.

“So many times you can’t get into the doctor or it’s the weekend and the only places open are hospitals, but with this service, you can get the care you need right at your home.”

illness outlined in DispatchHealth’s brochure and it’s not unusual to see them in our community four times a day,” she said. “Residents are seen in the privacy of their homes. This is critical as our residents tend to be low-income and transportation is the biggest challenge to accessing medical care in a timely manner. Many here cannot afford costly ambulance rides when the services of urgent care is more appropriate.”

Not only did DispatchHealth come and take care of Lamb when she was fighting off bronchitis, but they also came back a few months later when she had a bout of the flu.

“They were so well equipped, and able to deal with anything I needed,” she said. “I’d recommend them to anyone with a heartbeat.”

“We’re available to everyone, but we do see many older people making use of our services,” Riddleberger said. “You just let us know your symptoms, and we’ll let you know we’re coming, if it’s a situation we can treat.”

Eaton Senior Communities started working with DispatchHealth in the fall of 2016, and Sarah Schoeder, the wellness director at the community, said it’s visited Eaton about 164 times, saving about $200,000 in Medicare claims. In 2016, West Metro Fire Rescue responded to 249 calls to Eaton for lift assist, nonmedical and medical emergencies, and smoke alarms, she added. The hope is DispatchHealth will reduce the number of calls to West Metro.

SPORTS

Changing lanes Bowling attracting more people as a social activity than as a sport

BY JIM BENTON | JBENTON@COLORDOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

A

s time wears on, all sports evolve — and bowling has definitely changed.

Nowhere is that more evident than in the facilities themselves.

Bowling used to be primarily a blue-collar sport that was driven by league and tournament bowlers, with food and beverage sales boosting the profitability. Now many bowling centers are social, family entertainment centers that appeal to the younger generation.

At least one study says the number of people who bowl has been on the upswing in recent years.

But for those who come to the lanes to focus on rolling a high score — often as part of league play — the trend of bowling alleys becoming social centers isn’t a selling point.

“It’s always neat to see what they are doing new, but I’m a traditionalist when it comes to bowling,” said Wes Yelvington, a 182-average bowler from Littleton. “I like places that are bowling alleys. You didn’t have the arcades and pool tables.

That’s cool and

HOW BOWLING PAYS OFF FOR STUDENTS In recent years, young bowlers have gotten the chance to attend college with league and tournament money earned from bowling, which goes into SMART fund accounts to help pay for tuition.

Additionally there are several scholarships available for students who participate in bowling.

Bowling had gained recognition with 21 states by the 2015-16 season as a varsity

high school sport, but not in Colorado. There were 141 colleges in the U.S. during the 2015-16 season that had men’s varsity bowling teams and 139 schools had women’s bowling programs.

com report, there were 29,105 high school bowlers in 2015 and 791 college varsity bowlers. There were 26,110 female high school bowlers and 1,270 college varsity bowlers.

Only women’s bowling is a sanctioned NCAA sport as an equivalency sport for scholarship purposes.

There is one women’s national championship for all divisions but some colleges do have men’s varsity teams.

In a Scholarshipstats.

The NCAA Division I scholarship limit for women’s team is five but schools can reach the limit by offering half scholarships to 10 bowlers. The limit is also five in Division II and eight in National Junior College Athletic Association.

fun. It’s like an indoor amusement park for kids — but I want a little more.”

According to a Sports & Fitness Industry Association bowling participation report, league bowlers dropped from 2.48 million in 2007-08 to 1.49 million in 2015-16.

The number of bowling alleys in a 15-year span dropped 26 percent from 5,400 to 3,976 in 2013. But the number of people who say they bowl increased 10 percent.

For some professionals, the modern climate doesn’t hold a lot of promise for the sport — as

opposed to the social activity — of bowling.

“The bowling industry doesn’t have as many centers to bowl in and it tends to be going downhill around the Denver area,” said Sharon Powers, a 10-time Denver Women’s Bowler of the Year from Lakewood and a former tour professional. “People don’t take it seriously. It’s just ‘Let’s go bowl a couple games and go play pinball machines.’ To me it’s almost like making a joke of bowling.”

Men’s roller derby team represents Mile High City Englewood man skates with Denver’s Ground Control squad

BY TOM MUNDS TMUNDS@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Roller derby began as an all-women’s sport but with its rebirth in 2001 in Texas, programs also included men’s teams, and Englewood resident Josh Souz signed up when he learned about Ground Control, the Denver Roller Derby men’s team.

Souz and other members of the men’s team took part in the Denver Roller Derby July 12 practice and scrimmage at the Glitterdome in Denver, where the male skaters scrimmaged with the women.

“I have been roller skating most of my life. I was on the rink at a Skate City when I was asked to become a member of the men’s roller derby team and a roller hockey team on the same night,” Souz said. “I hadn’t been in an organized sport for a while, I had played roller hockey, so I decided to figure out what roller derby was all about. That was almost seven years ago and I am still with it.”

The scrimmage was a series of matches called jams. Each team sends five players out onto the flat ovalshaped track, four blockers and a jammer. When the starting whistle blows, the blockers focus on keeping the other team’s jammer from breaking free while opening a route for their jammer to race around the track and score points by passing opponents.

When a jammer got out of the pack during the jams at the scrimmage, her teammates set up to slow the pack while her opponents set up to keep her from passing them. Blocks were physical, often sending one or more players to the track surface. But the players quickly got up and returned to the battle.

Often one member of the men’s team joined the group when a jam was called. It seemed no one payed attention to whether the opponent was a man or a woman and frequently it was a man who got knocked to the skating surface.

Support your local paper!

Englewood resident Josh Souz looks to block an opponent during the July 12 Denver Roller Derby practice and scrimmage at Denver’s Glitterdome. Souz is a member of the DRD men’s team, but since the roster is small, the men practice and scrimmage with the women. Souz has been competing in men’s roller derby for six years because it is a good way to stay physically fit and to have fun.

PHOTOS BY TOM MUNDS “It is always intense out there on the track,” the Englewood man said during a break in the action. “We don’t have a lot of skaters on the men’s team so we scrimmage with the women.

The contact is physical and everyone skates hard.”

Souz uses his skating skills and speed as a jammer for the team. He said the most fun for him is when he circles the track and his blockers set things up for him so he can zip through the pack and score points by passing the opposing players.

The 32-year-old said roller derby is fun and his biggest challenge when he joined the sport was learning to use the quad-wheel skates instead of in-line skates.

“I had been using in-line skates almost all my life,” he said. “The only time I had four wheels per skate was when I was a little kid. It took some time getting used to the difference in the skates but it was part of the fun of being a roller derby skater.”

All roller derby athletes are amateurs with full-time jobs to make a living. Souz is a member of a military family and grew up in a number of

different places. He has lived in Englewood for more than two years and works in an information technology position as a site liability engineer.

Roller derby was popular in the 1940s and 1950s when the competition was on a banked track. The modern version on a flat track was reborn in 2001 in Texas. It grew nationally and internationally to where there are more than 1,200 leagues around the world. An entry on the internet stated that flat track roller derby is being considered to be added to the list of sports at the 2020 summer Olympics.

A game is divided into two 30-minute periods. Jams can run the full two minutes or be cut off by the lead jammer. Usually there are about 20 jams per half.

Denver Roller Derby’s largest program is for women, but there is also a men’s team plus a youth program for skaters under 18.

The Denver A level team, called the Mile High Club, is currently ranked seventh among the world’s A-level teams.

The program also has a secondlevel team, the Bruising Altitude, and

The men’s team, Ground Control, competes nationally and currently is ranked 18th.

In additional to traveling to tournaments, Denver Roller Derby has a local league with four teams that compete from January to April.

All individuals involved in roller derby are amateur athletes. Each player provides his or her own equipment which at least includes a helmet, knee pads and elbow pads. Traditional four-wheels-per-boot skates are used in roller derby. In-line skates are not allowed.

Denver Roller Derby athletes pay a $50 monthly membership fee. The money is used to cover the cost of renting space for games and practices, paying officials and other charges associated with the team. When a team travels, each player is responsible for his or her own expenses.

No-quit outlook fuels champion Antron Brown picks up 64th win during Mile High Nationals

BY JIM BENTON JBENTON@COLORDOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM

Top Fuel driver Antron Brown paid attention during a chapel service before the final day of the 38th annual Mopar Mile High Nationals at Bandimere Speedway in Morrison.

“The chaplin said quitters never win and winners never quit,” said Brown, a Pittsboro, Indiana, resident.

“I thought about it, and you know, that’s why we are where we are because we never quit.”

On July 23, Brown defeated top qualifier Leah Pritchett, a Don

Schumacher Racing teammate, with an elapsed time of 3.792 at 319.82 mph to win for the 64th time in National Hot Rod Association races.

It was his third win in Denver, tying him for the Bandimere Top Fuel lead for wins with Scott Kalitta and Tony Schumacher.

“When you come to this mountain, it eats you up so bad,” Brown said of the Morrison track, which sits 5,860feet above sea level. “It beat us up the first day (July 21), we got back on key the next day and we started picking away at it. The car was flawless by the finals.

“We were patching up everywhere.

Something was always going wrong.

We kept stepping up and that was a testament to our team. This race SEE NATIONALS, P33

Antron Brown signs autographs after winning the Top Fuel championship on July 23 at the Mopar Mile High Nationals held at Bandimere Speedway in Morrison.

NATIONALS FROM PAGE 29

definitely put us through a marathon, but seeing those win lights makes it all worthwhile,” Other professional winners during the final session of the three-day event were Robert Hight (Funny Car), Drew Skillman (Pro Stock) and Eddie Krawlec (Pro Stock Motorcycle).

Hight, who drives for John Force Racing, was sick and admittedly lucky as he broke a winless streak of 34 NHRA races and collected his first win of the season and fourth at the Mile High Nationals.

He had a 3.995 elapsed time at 317.54 mph in the finals against Tommy Johnson Jr., who had an elapsed time of 4.099 and a speed of 297.16 mph.

“I don’t know if I ate something bad this morning or last night but I was sick today,” said Hight, a resident of Yorba Linda, California.

“I couldn’t keep anything down. We definitely struggled through the first few rounds and we were lucky to get those round wins, but I have a great team who figured things out and helped me get to the winner’s circle.

Bradley Johnson of Morrison won the won the Super Gas division July 23 at the Mile High Nationals with a 10.464 elapsed time at 152.18 miles per hour.

JIM BENTON

Kris Whitfield of Littleton won the Super Comp division July 23 at the Mopar Mile High Nationals held at Bandimere Speeday in Morrison.

SCOTT STOCKER “It was big to get a win in the finals. It starts to wear on you. It’s been a long time coming and we hadn’t had much luck, but today we had some.”

Meanwhile, Courtney Force, daughter of the

division’s 16-time champion John Force, set Funny Car track records in the first qualifying session on July 21 with a low elapsed time of 3.889 and 328.30 mph. She was the No. 1 Top Fuel qualifier at the Mile High Nation-

als for the second consecutive year.

However, she was sent packing in the first round of eliminations by 16th seed Jim Campbell. John Force, the No. 2 qualifier, also lost early to Matt Hagen.

Driver Robert Hight snapped a streak of 34 races without a victory. He defeated Tommy Johnson Jr. to win the Funny Car title at the Mopar Mile High Nationals at Bandimere Speedway.

BOWLING FROM PAGE 27

For a typical Friday or Saturday night outing, bowling costs more than $5 a game, not including shoe rental. Toss in video games and food and the dollars add up.

To that end, today’s bowlers tend to have higher-than-average incomes.

A 2016 Experian Simmons National Consumer Survey found the annual median income of a bowling household was more than $76,000, while more than 28 percent of all bowlers had household incomes of over $100,000. The median household income in the nation is about $56,000, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

There are 23 bowling centers in the Denver metro area. Only four are independently owned: Arapahoe Bowling Center, 6850 S. Dayton St., Greenwood Village; Crown Lanes, 2325 S. Federal Blvd., Denver; Paramount Bowl, 2625 Kipling St., Wheat Ridge; and Holiday Lanes, 10350 W. Colfax Ave., Lakewood.

Bowlmor AMF is the largest bowling operator in the United States, with 304 centers — 293 in the U.S., eight in Mexico and three in Canada.

Bowlmor AMF was created from the merger of Bowlmor and AMF. The company acquired Brunswick bowling centers in 2014 for $270 million.

Atairos, a private investment fund, recently acquired a substantial ownership of Bowlmor AMF for an estimated $1 billion, but the management structure will remain, which means little change in the philosophy — which is more of a party, nightclub atmosphere with mostly open bowling.

One of the Denver-area bowling

centers that has adopted the Bowlmor philosophy is Bowlero Lone Tree, which has a big arcade, laser tag, big-screen televisions and glow lights.

Boondocks Food and Fun is another entertainment center that features bowling. It has locations in Utah, plus two in the Denver area: one in Parker at 18706 Cottonwood Drive, and the other in Northglenn at 11425 Community Center Drive.

There are bowling lanes plus plenty of games for youngsters, including go-karts, bumper boats and miniature golf.

“At Boondocks, bowling is one of the main attractions for our guests,” said John Schnerbarth, general manager of the Parker Boondocks location. “Guests can purchase bowling time by itself or as part of our unlimited day pass. We are trying to put a Wednesday evening league together that will run for 12 weeks.

Hopefully we will get enough interest and teams to create this league.”

Some metro-area centers manage to attract a crowd focused more on the sport than on the atmosphere — even while being part of the big chain.

Englewood’s AMF Belleview Lanes is “still a league-dominant house,” said Christina Radzikowski, manager of the center at 4900 S. Federal Blvd.

But that doesn’t mean there haven’t been some changes.

“A lot of our men’s leagues have dwindled over the years,” Radzikowski said. “One, because we are more mixed and women are bowling more. Overall, it’s not like it was in the ‘60s with a guy’s night out bowling and the woman stays home with the children.

“It’s a different era.”

Lender approval is being requested pursuant to the Original Declaration and Colorado Revised Statutes Section 38-33.3-217(1)(b).

The Association must receive approval from sixty-seven percent (67%) of eligible first mortgagees for the amendment to pass. The amendment does not affect the priority or terms of your deed of trust.

It incorporates terms that align with state statutes applicable to associations like Orofino Place at Castle Pines Unit Owners Association and excludes unnecessary references to the Declarant. The amended document goes into greater detail on maintenance and insurance obligations, aligns covenants with practices, and clarifies responsibilities between the Association and Lot Owners.
